Maybe the height gain above is correct. Maybe it just felt like one of the hardest things you?ve done. Maybe the cumul walk, Len: 56.3km, Climb: 3018m, Area: Spain, Canary Islands ()

Knockardakin: Bag it as part of the cliff walk

Summit Comment TommyV a day ago
I technically haven't bagged the summit of this hill as it wasn't listed on MV when I did the Ciiffs of Moher walk, but it would be a very small detour to bag it. I was no more than 50 meters from...

Ben Dash: One of my earlier attempts

Summit Comment TommyV a day ago
Ben Dash was one of my earlier attempts at hill bagging, back in the days when I had no gps and didn't believe I needed a map. I went through some bog that people had bagged turf on before I found...

More of a drive than a hike. Well worth it for the views.

Devilsbit Mountain: Get a bit of the Devil in ya!

Summit Comment TommyV 3 weeks ago
After a day of bagging some of the more unremarkable summits in North Tipperary, Devilsbit was a delight. There is designated parking at S06115 73178. Follow the waymarked path all the way to the ...

Cooneen Hill: Very average

Summit Comment TommyV 3 weeks ago
Nothing to add to simon3's directions. Like quite a few of the hills in North Tipperary, this one is through a Coilte forest track to begin with and then the tough push through some horrible groun...

Garmin: Track 2013 in area near Crockmulroney, Donegal NW (Ireland)
Derryveagh- Figure of 8 Circuit
Length: 11.0km, Creator time taken: 6h42m, Ascent: 165m,
Descent: 228m

Places: Start at B97113 15881, Crockmulroney, Cró an Locháin, Cruach na Sagart, Maumlack, end at Start
Logged as completed by 1
Starting at the back gate of Glenveagh national park this walk provides an ever widening vista of the Derryveagh mountains as the walk progresses. I particularly liked how a triangular profile of Errigal gradually appears on the ascent of Staghall mountain until, when i reached the summit of Maumlack mountain the view had widened out to include the entire seven sisters from Muckish to Errigal. The weather conditions on this autumn day yielded enough clarity of visability to also give a glimpse of Slieve League and what I assume to be Ben Bulbin in the far distance to the South.- A thoroughly enjoyable walk!
NB- The correct total ascent for this walk was 608m
